Skilpadvlei Wine Stellenbosch

The Skilpadvlei Wine Stellenbosch farm derives its charming name from the legendary colony of tortoises that was found in the vlei in the 1800's. The beautiful piece of land was dubbed Skilpadvlei and has been in the hands of the Joubert family since 1917.

Today, fourth generation Willie Joubert upholds the proud family tradition of harnessing the rich potential of the land with a dedicated commitment to quality. Skilpadvlei is a fully operational 78ha farm. There is a restaurant on the premises.
